Why does everyone say "legos"?!
I always have used "lego" to describe them, as a plural and a noun.

Example 1: "I have a lego brick" (Singular Noun)

Example 2: "My floor is covered with lego" (Plural)

Sorry for being a grammar Nazi

same over here (ok i did not quit because of factorio but the extra time i can invest very good in my factory) - before had around 600 hours - in the last time already up to ~850

EDIT: i did all this hours only vanilla - only mod i use sometimes for testing out layouts is creative mod

if only offline mode counted, i have a cracked version, only cause i dont have the money for the game as my daughter takes up al my money, oh how i love spending time on this game, wishing i had that $20 for factorio. For now I only play by myself, plus host a ocal-lan for me and the wife.

For 4 years and 9 days according to my factorio.com account.

You really shouldn't say that kind of stuff on the official forums.

As for my playtime I, Steam says I have 262 hours. I've only launched 1 rocket though.

no idea how many hours. i bought it on factorio.com so Wube gets ALL the $$$.
i do testing and let the steam version play to stress test layouts (and log hours for Wube )
mostly play the package version of the game.

bought the game when Version 0.12.33 was out.

by far the funnest, most replayable game since Lode Runner, and AutoDuel on my Apple //c.

I thought the game was released 4 years ago on Steam.
I found my first post on steam for this game in February of 2018.
I guess it was available elsewhere much earlier. I guess I forgot.

My total hours, including offline is somewhere around 6 to 7 thousand hours. I Think.
I seem to remember having my offline hours on my PC somewhere, but that info vanished.

Silly me. I thought the game was released 4 years ago. And you played it for 10 years? I think not.
On second thought. Was it available from Wube before the steam release? I forgot.

It came out of Steam EA ~4 years ago.
I picked it up from Steam about this time in 2017.
It was in development and available before being put on Steam though. 20...12? I think it was?

Is the time played registered somewhere when you didn't get the game from Steam?
The saves seem to measure time per save, but is the total time somewhere? Do the devs know how long I played?

I play Factorio since 30.12.2014. So 10 year anniversary this year also. I remember playing it non-stop until new year, totally forgetting about sylvester

I don't believe it is, no.

3500 hours + 1000h pre steam
Zero hidling, I hate the idea to run in the background.

I have played quite a lot, but the computer I originally installed it to is on the verge of death, so I haven't even touched the game since it went HD, just in case it crashed and burned. 500 hours...maybe?

Hi, all. Im new here. About 4 years I think? At first pretty casually but I've become utterly obsessed in the last couple of years. Finally getting to the point where I've got a solid set of builds and really looking forward to the expansion blowing them all up

About 300 hours.
I don't know, may include idle time
